The International Week is a space for meeting and collaboration that celebrates the academic, cultural and scientific diversity of universities from all over the world. In this first edition we met with representatives from 24 universities from Europe, the United States and Latin America, reflecting the richness and plurality of views that inspires us. Throughout these days we will share ideas, experiences and good practices to continue promoting a more global, inclusive and committed to the great challenges of our time higher education. We want this week to be an opportunity to learn from each other, strengthen alliances and build together a university future without borders.
